I disagree. I've yet to see a RP TV that looked as good as a plasma,
and considering how bulky they are (even with the recent advances),
and I just can't imagine being happy with one. I'd always be wondering
if I should have spent the extra $ (and not very many extra $ at
that). I know a guy with a 60" RP TV, and frankly I much prefer my 42"
plasma.
